Our Royal Heather Cue

Prince Krapotakan from Hndostar,
With complexion Of orange and yellow,
Aud Prince Ba5bu from Timbuctoo,
Who is tanned as black as Othello:
And the Arab sheik, with his leathery cheek,
And the Princess of kandahar,
And kings by dozens, vith all Of their cousins
From Borriobooa-Gha;
And the king Of Guinea, who at home plays
shiny"
With missionaries bones,
And the chief Of the Gaoura, Who each morn
dcvou-s
A baby, regardless Of groans;
And th, queen Of the Minsoes, who eats with her
fingers,
and drinks soup out Of pan
AL these the creatures regarded as textures
On the modern society plan.
He they brown, or magenta, or red. they can enter
Our priIn social ranks Just the same;
Though they eat with a shingle they freely CON-
ningle
With our people OF fashion and fame
With high royal poses, with rings in their nosea,
They Haunt at receptions and fetes,
And gives us the figets when with their ten digita
They shovel their food from their plates
We can't be disloyal To men who arv royal,
We must fatter and honor king.
But were these royal catins American natives,
Wed send them all OF 10 Sing Sing.
